For me, as a Georgia Tech alum, it goes back to a phantom call at the end of the ACC tourney. Redick slapped Jarrett Jack in the dick, and then refs called a foul on Jarrett's dick. Redick got more preferential treatment from refs than any Dook player I can remember. Fuck him in the ear...

I'm posting a link to my blog entry about Matt Diaz here, only because Diaz himself read it and tweeted me about it. Yeah, I'm excited. http://sb.gg/9WbP

I really enjoyed the Laettner 30 for 30. I eagerly await the sequel, "I hope JJ Redick dies slowly in a fire."

"Hibbity Dibbity" makes me laugh. But I usually skip the intro, too.

Y'all were way more creative with childhood nicknames than we were. There was "Shitty Nick," who got his name after he shit his pants in the 4th grade bc he refused to leave the showing of the Mighty Ducks. That one stuck with him. There was "Big Nick", because he looked like King King Bundy with sandy blonde hair. Later on we added Chris 212, because he ate 212 chicken nuggets at the chik Fil A dwarf house on "All you can eat" nugget night. Brandon was Big Pound, because he was a road grader extraordinaire on the football field. I started out as Andy switch, because I could switch hit in high school baseball, but then I speared a snot-nosed pimply little sharecropper's son from a rival school who was trying to steal our school spirit flag (again, small town GA) during a basketball game. The place went nuts, I got arrested and after that I was "Drewberg."

I can tell you the match: I was about 10 and we were staying w my grandparents for the summer while my mom got her master's degree. I was BORED. There were some kids in the neighborhood, but not many, and Monroe, Louisiana was not exactly an entertainment hotbed (this was pre-DUCK DYNASTY). I was flipping through the channels thinking about how higher education was a waste of time and got transfixed on Bret Hart vs. 1-2-3 Kid on Monday Night Raw. I sat enraptured as this tiny guy went toe-to-toe with the WWF Champion. Never missed a wk after that...

Im trying to think of contractually unaffiliated guys they could bring in at this point.... Lance Hoyt. Brian Myers. Ted DiBiase Jr. Colt Cabana. The Young Bucks. Crime Time. The Bullet Club guys, if an arrangement is made. Tommy Dreamer. The Dudley Boys. uh.....

This guy don't know who LaFours is...

As far as cuts go, even with the NXT call-ups, I don't think they have enough talent to keep up their house show schedule and cut very many guys. Maybe Hornswoggle, since you have El Torito, and Heath Slater, because Heath Slater, but I can't think of too many others. Zack Ryder has been in the opener of every house show/tv taping i've been to, and he's usually good for a pop. He's like, the homeless man's Tito Santana.

Also, I dont think anyone is "suggesting" they were stalling for time with Rock & Rousey. I'm gotdam declaring it...

I just called my dad, knowing he knows who LT is, to see if he knows who Ronda Rousey is. He is as far out of tune with pop culture as one can be. His response; "you mean the armbar lady?" He may not can pick her out of a lineup, but hes heard of her. And he saw her on ESPN. For WWE, that segment was mission; accomplished.

Just random thoughts I jotted down during the show: Damn, Natalya. The "evil queen" look suits you. Tittays. Poor New Day. Los Matadores as a gimmick licks greasy camel dicks, but both those guys are gifted workers. EL TORITO! Naomi is a freakish athlete. Too bad she's in an era where the Divas mean less than ever. All the guys in the IC title match went out and got new gear, and Dean Ambrose shows up looking like he walked there. Wait a damn minute. Dean Ambrose is cosplaying John Connor! I get it now. "Come with me if you want to sleep in a dumpster...." Hopefully Daniel Bryan can do something with the IC title. He, Barrett, Ambrose and Ziggler probably deserved better. Luke Harper is a terrifying human being. Randy Orton shouldn't be boring. But he is. Seth Rollins hairstyle keeps me from taking it seriously. Looks like sour ass. holy damn that RKO! Mr. Miyagi didnt have anything better to do than play that bell looking thing during Sting's entrance? Old guys having fun. This looks like when Foreigner and Styx tour together. Billy Gunn is a freak of nature. Sting/HHH felt like SNL40. All guys i wanted to see doing things i used to love watching them do, but its a sad reminder that time waits for no man. This music is....no worse than Kid Rock. I guess. #givedivasachance....to gettheir assbones broken on the ring steps. Holy shit, Paige. Mildly surprised Pay-J went over. Rusev's entrance. ALL THE DOLLAR SIGNS. Damn, Lana. Just, damn. I keep waiting for C. Thomas Howell to pop up from the crowd and shoot an RPG at Rusev's tank. Cena should've aped Apollo's entrance in Rocky 4. Bruno Mars could sub in for James Brown. Uncle Sam hat, Stars n Stripes trunks. WTF, man? The Rock can hold a damn audience's attention. He is unparalleled in a live setting. And I 100% believe the sun wouldve just gone down if the Rock had told it to. HHH is a saint for bumping for Rousey like that. Rousey vs. Steph in JerryWorld. They have 100000 seats to fill. That's 200000 buttcheeks. Rousey is the definition of "box office" right now. Bray Wyatt needs a family. A cult leader with no followers is a shitty cult leader. Taker looks like he's in shape. Taker didnt need this win, but in a way it makes sense. Still wish they saw in Wyatt what I do. He is the best promo in the company right now. Reigns straight shoving fools out of the way on his way to the ring. Dug the "punch the mat and fireworks shoot off" thing. Heyman swaggering behind Lesnar is like when Will would act tough from behind Uncle Phil on Fresh Prince. Classic stuff. I wish Heyman would introduce me for job interviews and shit. Brock Lesnar is the scariest athlete on the planet right now. Really dug this match concept. Roman dies for the sins of the writing team, but won't give up. YOU CAN'T HEADBUTT A SAMOAN. We all know this. Reigns kicked out of more F-5's than Undertaker. That's some starmaking shit right there. On my last beer. Gonna try to rap it up. Rollins! This is brilliantly timed, because he doesnt have to pin Lesnar. Man-sized spear on Lesnar. Rollins gets the W. Great way to start the new WWE yr. Rollins has feuds with Reigns, Orton, Lesnar, and Ambrose all ready to go. Nice. Great show. Not as satisfying an ending as last year, but FAR exceeded my expectations. 8/10.

Hundreds of Samoans? Hell naw.

The Bushwhackers are awesome. That is all.

That Roman Reigns "suit ponytail shades" look is what he should be as a heel. Too cool for school, rich, spoiled, and knows he's the golden boy. THAT's the Roman we need...

Do you dispute the payoff at Wrestlemania 30 was one of the greatest of all time?

I think Rock vs. Brock on top, with Undertaker's retirement match, and a third compelling main-event "Dream match" style match (HHH vs. Rollins? Rusev vs. Bryan?) Could sell an ass of tickets to Wmania 32...

So, if whichever Uso is hurt is too hurt to go, any chance they'd have Rikishi sub in for him? Might be a nice moment, seeing as how he will have gone in the HOF the night before...

Yeah, there's lambs to the slaughter, and then there's sending Eva Marie out to host an event in front of the hardest of the hardcore. Maria Menounos got eaten alive for 8 minutes.

Gronk got his own bus. To drink on. He's dumb like a fox.

Anyone else in here unsophisticated enough to admit watching and enjoying "Trailer Park Boys?"

Ive listened to a couple of Tazz's podcasts, and the only one i thought better than "meh" was his thoughts on the Bill DeMott situation. I was so impressed by his understanding of training wrestlers and how he business has changed that I'm halfway convinced he should be the new head trainer at NXT.

I voted for Nakamura, because as someone who's never watched minute one of Japanese wrestling, I've spent the last hour enthralled by him on youtube.

As of November, when i last spoke to him, Cody's interest in WWE is tepid at best. I think there are some serious reservations about what that lifestyle did to his dad...

Count me in the "Kimmy Schmidt" club. REALLY enjoyed the season.
